As a result of the coronavirus pandemic, several attractions are shifting to provide online entertainment. The Charleston County Public Library is one of them.

Though branches currently are closed, patrons still can engage with the library from the comfort of their homes via a variety of digital resources, programming and services. The library is providing temporary free e-card access during branch closures.

Among the free digital resources being expanded are virtual programs that include children's story times, episodes of the "Charleston Time Machine" podcast, staff book recommendations, Spanish language lessons, MET Opera performances, educational resources, visual field trips and art classes.
